The windows are the windows to your soul...

Next project shortly after the roof was new windows and doors....  Still not DIY because we let the experts do the heavy lifting, cause they are awesome sauce.  And some of them are pretty damn cute too ... *ahem*  Maybe I shouldn't blog while drinking wine heheheh

I digress...

December 9th, the hot boys from Verdun Windows  http://verdunwindows.com/ came over around 7:30 am to replace almost every window except for two really small ones in the basement as well as the front door, side door and the patio door out of the kitchen.

These two guys do phenomenal work.  One guy works inside, cuts out the old window, the other guy up on a ladder pull out the whole window, hooks it over one shoulder and climbs down.  *BLINK*  That stuff is heavy!  Then the guy outside comes back with a new window slung over his shoulder, climbs up.  They stick it in, shim it up, level it up, nail it in, put up the outside vinyl trim.  Then the guy inside sprays some insulating foam and they move on to the next window.

The first day they did almost all the upstairs windows and a few of the downstairs as well.  Tuesday we left the door unlocked and they showed up shortly after we left for work and finished all the windows and started finishing up the inside trims.  Wednesday they put in the doors and finished off whatever needing doing as well as clean up.

So hot to see a guy wearing a tool belt, on his hands and knees vacuuming your floor... *swoon*

Um, yeah... here's some pics LOL

New kitchen window before the trim pieces are put on.  This is the only "Awning" type of window in the house  I wanted an unobstructed view of the squirrels.  All others are double hung, tilt in windows... easy to clean!

Nice long skinny window in the powder room that replaces the old pink stained glass with gold leaded lines.

New window up in the loft.

Old front door with the pink stained glass and gold lead lines.

This is what I came home to on Wednesday night... ACK!  No front door!  brrrr  but not to worry because there was soon a beautiful new front door in place.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the new front door with the different textured glass, no colour, just frosted and silver leaded lines.

Now all the big projects done by professionals are done for 2013.  Not sure what 2014 will bring for the larger projects, but I do know that I will have tons of painting to do all over the place and tons of carpets still yet to pull out.
